|  | | CTL Engineering Delivers Transparency and Efficiency with e-Construction Solutions
CTL Engineering is an engineering consulting firm with locations throughout Ohio. Prior to pursuing an e-Construction solution for LPA projects, the firm used spreadsheets for project management. Issues with duplicate data entry, travel time, project set-up, and stakeholder reporting led CTL Engineering to seek out a real-time, cloud-based solution for construction project management and inspection.

|  | | Taking Steps Toward Model as the Legal Document (MALD) Through Data Standards
What do you think about modeling in engineering and construction? Models are a natural evolution for us in the digital world. When we first started using CAD, it was not much more than a digital pencil and a digital drafting board. But wow, have we evolved! If you or your engineers are using any of the latest design tools, they are creating 3D models. And depending upon the engineer's sophistication, they may be very information or data robust models. Agencies like Utah Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration are leading the charge by bringing models to the forefront of design and construction. We are headed toward models being the legal document or the legal delivery for solicitation and construction.

|  | | The Role of GIS in Infrastructure Asset Maintenance
There's a shift occurring in the world of infrastructure construction. It's a subtle shift, but one backed by stronger currents that are propelling the industry forward. The shift could be described in a number of ways, but we like to think of it as the movement away from "digital as-builts" - the collection of digital information concerning project construction - to the idea of "digital as-is" - a more real-time reflection construction data. This transition is backed by an increasing focus and reliance on GIS-backed location data that can be captured during construction and fed into a variety of systems.
In this article, we'll focus on the specific role GIS data plays in supporting infrastructure asset maintenance. → | | | | | Data Analytics |
|  | | The Foundational Aspects of Organizational Data Management
Transportation organizations in the infrastructure construction industry are developing data analytics strategies and are striving to become more data driven in their decision-making practices. This is creating greater dependence on treating data as an organizational asset and the recognition they must put in place the foundational aspects for better data management processes. In addition to a goal of data analytics and data driven decision-making, organizations are expected to have high quality and accurate data for myriad reporting purposes, whether to legislative bodies, constituents, customers, or for more formal audit and compliance requirements. Finally, as transportation agencies pursue digital delivery as part of their core business, having good data management practices is becoming essential.
This blog will explore the foundational aspects of a modern and mature data focused organization. → | | | |
